Go Maths

Learning and
understanding Mathematics, at every level, requires learner
engagement. Mathematics is not a spectator sport. Sometimes
traditional teaching fails to actively involve students. One way to
address the problem is through the use of interactive activities and
this web site provides many of those.
The Go Maths page is
an alphabetical list of free activities designed for students in Secondary/High school.
